Dave Chinner 2c307174ab xfs: flush removing page cache in xfs_reflink_remap_prep
On a sub-page block size filesystem, fsx is failing with a data
corruption after a series of operations involving copying a file
with the destination offset beyond EOF of the destination of the file:

8093(157 mod 256): TRUNCATE DOWN        from 0x7a120 to 0x50000 ******WWWW
8094(158 mod 256): INSERT 0x25000 thru 0x25fff  (0x1000 bytes)
8095(159 mod 256): COPY 0x18000 thru 0x1afff    (0x3000 bytes) to 0x2f400
8096(160 mod 256): WRITE    0x5da00 thru 0x651ff        (0x7800 bytes) HOLE
8097(161 mod 256): COPY 0x2000 thru 0x5fff      (0x4000 bytes) to 0x6fc00

The second copy here is beyond EOF, and it is to sub-page (4k) but
block aligned (1k) offset. The clone runs the EOF zeroing, landing
in a pre-existing post-eof delalloc extent. This zeroes the post-eof
extents in the page cache just fine, dirtying the pages correctly.

The problem is that xfs_reflink_remap_prep() now truncates the page
cache over the range that it is copying it to, and rounds that down
to cover the entire start page. This removes the dirty page over the
delalloc extent from the page cache without having written it back.
Hence later, when the page cache is flushed, the page at offset
0x6f000 has not been written back and hence exposes stale data,
which fsx trips over less than 10 operations later.

Fix this by changing xfs_reflink_remap_prep() to use
xfs_flush_unmap_range().

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
